MCW-D 10

charging and transport case

The MCW-D 10 is a modular charging and transport case. The basic version consists of a cover (LD 10), a charging unit (LE-D 10) for 10 microphone units and a bottom with wheels (LB 10). The MCW 100 discussion control unit can be accomodated in the empty compartment (LA 10). The MCW 200 can be integrated into the case as a system unit. Each charging unit has the charging electronics and 10 compartments for the microphone units. On both sides there are handles for comfortable carrying. It is recommended to use not more than two LE 10 charging units on top of each other, because the top might become too heavy. The body of the case is made of plywood with a washable foil inside and grey laminate outside. The coloured surface is flecked with grey. The case is equipped with ball-bearing casters with a diameter of 80 mm. Two of the wheels are equipped with brakes. Silver anodized aluminium profiles protect the edges from shocks and ensure an exact fitting of the individual sections. There are four locking chromium-plated automatic locks per section. For charging the microphone units are put into the charging facilities. Gold-plated and shock-mounted charging contacts ensure the electric connection between microphone unit and charging electronics. The charger is equipped with a protection against confusing the poles. The charger has a real processor-controlled charging electronics with software-controlled charging curve. All batteries are charged simultaneously. After approximately 1 hour the battery is fully charged, depending on the previous use. The charging state of the batteries is indicated by LEDs. The memory effect is avoided due to the impulse charging with variable pulse duration. The fully charged battery is switched off by “Delta Peak-identification”. To avoid a self-discharge of the batteries, trickle charging is carried out every 72 hours. So each microphone unit has its full capacity at any time. Therefore, beyerdynamic recommends the charger being connected to the mains permanently.
